Thanks for the reply s guys :). Good to get a bit of an insite into what is happening elsewhere with everyone. Blue car is coming home for a few weeks, as I'm sick of people touching it. Found out it was 1 of 2 guys at work today. They are the physically "largest" blokes there, the Alfa Males. I really don't have anything against either of them to be honest.. One of them started treating me like a piece of dirt for a few months there, and now his mood is about as predictable as a bouncy ball in a washing machine. He is either bipolar, Drug fuc*ed or on something nasty. We use to get along like a house on fire. The other one is.. Acts normal around single people.. and then differently around others. Regardless of your physical status, i don't see why people still need to use others to boost their already sky-high ego. Wow, you've a gym junkie, but turn around and hit the ciggys and pop a pill here and there. Intelligence + 1. So ! yes, Car has done 76.1 Kms, Have not found any more tingling issues with it, which is a positive :). Had to wash the top of the car and shammy it to get the penis off. To be honest, i still get angry thinking about it... but it is what it is. I have no plans on pursuing it any further & don't intend on stooping to his level to retaliate. Ill try to keep the blog aspect out of this from now on.. Its just good to show a few people what happens behind the scenes in such a "professional" place.

wow, dez congratulations :) "thinks about mini-dezz's doin skid work on push bikes"

Yeah. I think the thing that really ticked me off the most is the graffiti & lack of respect. The general attitude of the place isnt very good. I almost feel slightly better when i say - its not just me that is on the receiving end of it. I can deal with the dick heads, the rude, the incompetent - thats everywhere in life. Couldn't get the arvo off to see John, So ill be calling him early next week. Will be trying to get the car to the exhaust shop after i get back from my fraiser island trip next week. Oh. After talking with Shannon (Corona Driver, some of you have met him) -> its been descided the front end needs to be pulled out and re-done. (Ie. Front struts, lower control arms, caster bars, sway bar). Will be replacing it all with the Ae86 stuff, which i have and need to recondition. Reason i say this is the bushes in the front of the current setup are farked anyway & having the T18 rear has changed the brake bias abit, and putting the Ae86 front stuff in will even it back up again. So, if anyone wants a set of (insert brand new in front of every part used here) Ke70 Struts on reco' control arms, brakes, yada yada, Put your hand up! Can even supply with a set of genuine, new Toyota brake pads from 1982. :hmm:

To be honest, ive had a bad day, and this just pissed me RIGHT off. Sick of dealing with incompetent fools. Some low bastard has written on the roof of the blue car "What a cock" & a big penis with there finger. Just after i cleaned it. I don't know if its grease or.. ? What do i do ? They simply wont learn. I go out of my way not to touch other peoples things, and this is how they F*cking treat my stuff ? I suppose that's why they are in the industry. Young, Stupid, Incompetent & Absolutely no respect for society. God damnit sometimes i wish i never started in the industry, and had abit more maturity to my life during my school years. Hell, i may actually be doing something half descent now. To be quite honest, after this week's lack of work, Realization that $17 bucks an hour is a) unmotivational b) unpractical & c) unexciting for the amount of technical information that is required to complete the job(s) on a daily basis... no wonder the industry is full of drug-F*cked morons that Rent all there lives & live off ciggys and beer. Not to mention the stress that gets involved, "Oh wow, i can't understand this problem, but its a 12,000 $ part - its only a mistake if you get it wrong :hmm: - I can't advice people strongly enough to stay out of the mechanical industry all together. Looking from a 3rd person's view on my life atm - Wow, if i wasn't living at home, there is no way i could sustain even a basic life on my current wage. I suppose learning to break out of the normal life comfort zones will determine how this puzzle ends.. I just appear to have the total royal $hits with that place lately. Mental stimulation over the last few months has gone from Nill to None 75% of the time, Politics within the company is like a daily bolly-wood soapie'. I wish i knew what i wanted to do in life.

Wheels have been painted. Pics Tomorrow :hmm: Hoping to get tomorrow arvo off early, to visit John & get my door trims sorted out. Getting sump welded One piece at a time i guess. Not as close as i had of hoped.
-
Oh. And front brakes, being ADM ke70 are not matched for the T18 Rear. Ie. They lock up whilst the rear is hardly working; Thinking the quick(est) solution to this problem is to put the Ae86 Front Struts in - Front end out. Doh.
-
Standard wheels are only there for the time being. Update. Car up on hoist at work. - Rear break squeeeeeeek = handbrake spring on wrong hole, rubbing on axle. :y: - rear diff oil R&R - Tailshaft out of balance. Re-shimed, and aligned. Added some new bolts n washers. - Drained oil, R&R filter. Added sump plug washer... twas missing :hmm: - Sump has a leak. one of the factory welds for the internal sump baffle has let go, and theres a leak at the front of the sump. - Front wheel bearings not even hand-tight. Ugh. - on a hard right hand turn, inside of standard wheel scrubs on caster bar. On left hand turn, theres about a 1cm gap between tire and caster bar. UGH. - Lower control arm bushes are floged out, need replacing - Ball joints are both split and need replacing - Clutch fluid needs bleeding still.. hard to get gears sometimes. Will also need an adjust.. hard to get gears occasionally - LSD is still god dam tight. - Possibly a blown headgasket, signs of milky-ness under oil cap - R&R cooling system coolant - Handbrake needs adjusting, again - Drivers door external weatherstrip on window has a rubber piece thats fallen out - All the fuel lines / pipes need to be taken off, and the ends flared in a few mm, to stop lines slipping off. Current worm drive attachment isnt good enough. - All the coolant clamps are worm drive and will start to leak. Need replacing. - Air box intake is too small and needs increasing - plastic welding ftw - Rad fan still needs to be mounted correctly - Alt belt was noisy - Alt. Bracket was hand loose - Wiring for Alt. was taken off front sway bar (that was just silly) and mounted along front rad. support panel - LHF drivers door switch is sticky - Car now has just under 70 kms on it.

Hello All. Currently posting on mothers work computer, as i don't have internet access currently, and have not had for the the last few days. I hope to have internet by the end of the weekend again. This is something that i didnt expect to have an issue with, and i am extreamly sorry for the feelings of possibly screwing people around. Because of this muckup, its screwed a few other things in my life around, which has pissed me off to no extent. Because i cannot stay on this computer for very long, i figgured this was the only post i need to put something in, to respond to all the pm's quickly. For this stuff up, i will include some complmentay gift in each of the sticker packages free of charge, to try and cover up for this screw around. I hope you like your little extras. Shortly after my last post in this thread is when i lost my connection to the web. Bah. Sorry again guys, ill make it up to you all.
